Well if Luongo is out(?) then it's pretty unfair to ask Sanford to come in and be anything but average after so long without a sniff of action. We may just have to take it on the chin tonight and move on in that case.

Taylor Pyatt opens the game with a fight and performs quite admirably for an unlikely candidate to drop the gloves. He was definitely hanging on at the end there and looked exhausted.

All Canucks fans will have to continue to play a waiting game, regarding whether or not Reoberto Luongo is in the line-up or not. I just hope the Canucks are in a safe place when the time comes for Luongo to be with his wife.

Should be an interesting power play and hopefully the Canucks can continue their decent PP record and pot one here.
